Students collect, organize, represent, and interpret relationships in data sets that have one or more variables. They determine probabilities and use them to make predictions about events.
Adjustable Spinner - Students can create a game spinner with variable sized sectors to look at experimental and theoretical probabilities.
Chances - What many people refer to as 'good luck' can actually be explained by a little knowledge about probability and statistics. Our dice game allows you to see how increasing or decreasing the number of dice rolls effects an outcome.
Coin Flip - This coin flipper builds a column graph one flip at time [you may need to agree for the browser to run active-X controls].
Coin Toss - Toss enough coins to make a prediction about probability (maximum number of tosses 1000, but you can keep tossing to get a larger data set).
Leap Frog - Design an experiment to answer a question, collect information, and interpret the results using charts.
Probability - The BAMZOOKi Zooks are under starter's orders. Get ready to race! Interactive game from BBC.
